Did you know that our favorite actress graduated high school when she was only 16?? That despite acting on the side, Jessica Alba did not only graduate from HS, but finished early at that! Obviously she’s intelligent, so is acting really her chosen career path? The Love Guru actress shares, “I did, yeah [chose acting].” Jessica Alba further explains her early graduation from HS: “I graduated because I was working and I was tutored and I didn’t have any school breaks. So you know, when most kids get summer breaks and Christmas vacation and all those things, I didn’t have any of that, I was just doing school one-on-one with a tutor all the way through so I just finished early.”

But Jessica Alba’s primary motivation was this: “I finished early in order to give myself two years of working and trying to make it in the business [Hollywood]. If I didn’t get a good job that I though was going to put me permanently kind of - make me relevant in the business I was just going to go school and figure something else out. I got Dark Angel when I was seventeen, and that was kind of a blessing for me because, you know, I really couldn’t imagine doing anything else.”
